How-Do was told that the Chartered Institute of Public Relations' judging was done in August and the award was given for their work between July 2005 and July 2008.
Staniforth boss Rob Brown was presented with the Outstanding PR Professional gong. Tangerine and Golley Slater picked up 3 each and Manchester Airport Group took home 2 awards.
